How did you prepare for the interview?

read over my AADSAS and secondary application, personal statement, visit the UCSF website, talk to current students, and read interview feedbacks

What impressed you positively?

The location of the school is excellent. SF is a beautiful city that has a lot to offer (food, scenery, diversity, etc.). The atmosphere and environment of the school is very professional and academic. The faculty and students are top-notch in the nation.

What impressed you negatively?

The day was not organized. Some of the students did not get a tour of the school. The building and facility are old.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known that the entering class had already been full and that there were 20 other students being interviewed on this "last interview day" for the 2004 entering class.

What are your general comments?

UCSF was my first choice before the interview. After visiting the school, I was certain that I would attend the school if I were accepted.
